Job Details

Chef Andrew Carmellini is seeking a Sommelier for his signature restaurant Café Carmellini at The Fifth Avenue Hotel.

Café Carmellini is the signature restaurant from James Beard Award-winning chef Andrew Carmellini. Here Chef Carmellini marks his return to fine dining, distilling his 30-year New York City career into an extraordinary culinary experience. His stylish food marries Italian and French cooking with a classic New York feel and a modern vibe.

Chef Carmellini’s menu draws on many sources of inspiration, from the city he loves to a family history rich with hospitality and a passion for food. (The restaurant’s name is a nod to the family coffee importing business, which thrived in Tuscany for 120 years.) Some dishes are classics reimagined; others are fresh approaches to dishes he has cooked for many years; still others are new innovations, highlighting the best of each season.

The wine program is curated by Master Sommelier Josh Nadel and features a unique, comprehensive 1,800-bottle wine list featuring the best producers from Italy, France, the U.S. and around the globe. The design of Café Carmellini weds the landmark building’s original neoclassical architecture with maximalist style, channeling Old New York elegance and sophistication. Café Carmellini offers a welcoming kitchen, an intimate bar, an extraordinary dining room featuring two grand sculptural trees and a carefully curated art collection, and balconies offering tête-à-tête dining experiences with a view of the action.

Ideal candidates possess:

*Warm and gracious service approach, and the ability to create stellar guest experiences

*High level functioning and poised demeanor in busy environments

*Strong knowledge in wine & spirits, with an emphasis on Europe and America

*Comfort in service and fluency with older wines, vintage variation, and refined dining room service

*Familiarity with progressive, trend-setting & contemporary wines

*Experience in cellar organization

*Ability to assume full responsibility for menu content and deliver excellent service

*Previous experience with POS and inventory systems

*The ability to lift 25+ pounds

*Comfortable speaking in front of a large group

*Open availability and career driven

Benefits:

We offer medical, dental, and vision benefits day of hire for full time employees, as well as a 401(k), Paid Time Off, Employee Dining Discount, BRi Commuter Benefits, Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for full time employees, and Referral Reward Program.

Since first partnering in 2009, chef Andrew Carmellini, Josh Pickard and Luke Ostrom have opened a national portfolio of restaurants and culinary services at preeminent hotels, live music venues and major metropolitan sports arenas and airports across New York City, Detroit, Baltimore and Nashville including Locanda Verde, The Dutch, Joe’s Pub and The Library at The Public, Lafayette, Bar Primi, Leuca, Westlight, Mister Dips, Rec Pier Chop House, The Cannon Room, San Morello, Evening Bar, The Brakeman, Penny Red's, Carne Mare, Café Carmellini and The Portrait Bar.
